I said yes to this opportunity having some idea of what I was getting into, but living through it is much better. The story doesn't start there though. I had to secure a partner! Who could take on this challenge with me?
My home renovation story began with Brandon, a Contractor and Master Carpenter who's been building since high school. From the start of my reno, he has reframed my pantry full of termite damage, replaced dry-rotted floor joists, and replaced the knob and tube wiring in my 1900s home. , in addition to building homes from the foundation up, Brandon can make any build happen.
While Brandon replaced and repaired, I kept an eye out for learning from him and slowly started my collection of tools. From there, I began building and fixing all the things within my range of knowledge in the home. After installing new drywall, my first project was laying tile in the kitchen, quickly followed up by building floating pantry shelves. Fast forward to now, I've completed several rooms in my home, built furniture pieces, and upgraded a few more spaces in family and friends' homes.
Before this experience, Brandon had essentially kicked me out of the nest of him showing me how to do things, to being there for a phone call and FaceTime for any project I was working on.
The experience of Battle on the Beach is one of a kind for us and an unforgettable opportunity. I can't wait for you to see us rock it out!
